rubio is dangerous for democrats. i'm so glad that we're talking about him and that we're joking about him, because right when he reached for that water bottle, he was reaching an emotional part of that speech when he stepped on and he found it again at the end of that speech. the last 90 seconds of that speech shows the danger that he poses to democrats. he is to the heart what paul ryan is to the head. i'm not saying he's not also equally intelligent, but he can connect emotionally, the democrats dodged a bullet. we've not heard the last from marco rubio. i want to talk about not what he -- what he was, you know, not able to say with the water bottle. some of the stuff that he said is kind of scary. he voted against the violence against women act the day before, a few hours before. but -- so this guy has a very extreme record. he's very much like paul -- rand paul, his record, so you got a guy with a very extreme record. and yet he can connect emotionally. he's dangerous for democrats. i think people can chuckle tod

senators marco rubio for the republicans and senator rand paul for the tea party. akarding to both republicans and the tea party, there's no divide of any kind. in fact, one says it represents a victory for the conservative movement. cnn's jim acosta explains. >> they talk about the cost of social programs. >> reporter: in one corner, florida senator mark colorado rubio, dubbed the republican savior on the cover of "time magazine." in the other corner kentucky senator rand paul with reaction from the tea party movement. for both men, the dueling speeches are a sudden sign of their star power. just three years ago rubio was a tea party favorite but a long shot for the senate when he sat down with cnn for one of his first interviews. a little more than two years later he had a prime speaking slot at the republican convention and now he's a leading voice on immigration reform. >> he did absolutely nothing on immigration. >> we're coming to take our government back. >> reporter: paul who also rode the tea party wave into the senate in 2010 says his response to the pres

senator marco rubio, for one, called the plan dead on arrival. so why the leak, why the backlash right now? here with the behind the scenes breakdown, our chief white house correspondent, jessica yellin. a lot of tough talk, jessica, from republicans. why exactly are they so mad about this? >> partly, wolf, because this is a surprise. the republicans didn't know the president was moving the white house bill on a separate track. they thought it was on deep freeze while the senate works out a compromise, so they think there's really only one reason the president would ready his own plan. he's preparing for the senate to fail, so they're mad. also, this is unusual. the obama white house rarely writes its own legislation. so this new strategy is unnerving some in both parties. now, the white house insists this is just a back-up plan, and they also tell me that they didn't leak the draft, and they think that the leak is unfortunate. >> were there really any surprises in this draft? >> no, great question, and the answer is no surprises at all. the deta
